Researchers are evaluating the effectiveness of switching to injectable GS-3242 plus Lenacapavir LEN compared to continuing the oral medication Biktarvy bictegraviremtricitabinetenofovir alafenamide, BFTAF in adults with well-controlled HIV-1 infection. The study has two parts Part A focuses on people in treatment Groups 1, 2, and 3 at Week 35, while Part B focuses on Groups 4 and 3 at Week 26. This phase 2 trial aims to assess the efficacy of these treatments in virologically suppressed people with HIV-1. Participants are randomized to receive either oral loading doses of GS-3242 combined with LEN tablets followed by intramuscular IM injections of GS-3242 and LEN for up to 52 weeks, at different doses depending on the group, or to continue daily oral BFTAF for up to 52 weeks. Part B participants are enrolled non-randomized to receive oral loading doses and IM injections of GS-3242 and LEN at specific doses. The study compares these treatment approaches to evaluate viral control over specified time points. During the study, participants will have their HIV-1 RNA levels monitored at Week 26, Week 35, and Week 52 using the FDA Snapshot Algorithm to measure viral suppression. Additional assessments include CD4 cell counts, drug concentration levels in blood, and monitoring for treatment-emergent adverse events. The studys total duration extends up to 52 weeks for treatment and includes safety and efficacy evaluations at multiple time points.
